Attempted to dry fit my new bumper to mark out where to drill it. It's not summer no more and light goes out fast

Probably this weekend I'll get around to it


Edit: oh and I'm also going to lhellhole zone" now to exchange this crappy starbit set cause they got all bent up fast

Why did you take off the bumper?

Very nice! You finally got it all lined up

Looks like I'll be home Sunday, btw, but probably just for one or two days. We can trim up my rear fenders, I can get a quote on tires (I've decided 31s for sure), and hopefully pick up my leaf packs for $50. I also sent a guy a message today about a set of 15x8 black Cragar D-Windows for $80.

So I could slide in these captured nuts into the subframe. I welded some grade 8 nuts to some steel strap. They were painted after this picture.

I've got rattlecan auto primer, black and red gloss, and clearcoat if you want to use some. Gotta maintain status quo
